How much to repair focus motor for D100?

[Tango3]

Hi guys,

My old D100 recently konked out due to a fault focus motor, whenever the shutter is pressed sounds like the gear teeth are worn or something.. refuses to focus the lens... Any idea on the damage if I were to send to Nikon to repair it?

Thanks,
Tsentsan

Sounds like someone forcefully turned the focusing ring without switching to MF to disengage the drive shaft.
